Top Tyrone Taylor News

  • Mets' Tyrone Taylor: Lifts homer

    Taylor went 1-for-3 with a solo home run during Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Phillies.

    Taylor provided an equalizing solo home run in the eighth inning off Cristopher Sanchez. The long ball was Taylor's seventh of the season, and his first since July 24 (40 games). On the year, he's slashing .239/.288/.389 across 302 plate appearances.

  • Mets' Tyrone Taylor: Back on bench Wednesday

    Taylor is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles.

    Taylor had started in center field over Harrison Bader in both of the Mets' last two matchups with right-handed pitchers, but Bader is manning center field for the second time in the series while New York faces off against a lefty (Cole Irvin). Manager Carlos Mendoza hasn't indicated that the two outfielders have moved into a platoon, though Bader's ongoing slump might have opened up more opportunities for Taylor in the short term. Bader has gone 3-for-28 over his last 12 games heading into Wednesday.

  • Mets' Tyrone Taylor: Drives in three Sunday

    Taylor went 1-for-4 with a double and three RBI in Monday's win over the Cardinals.

    The veteran outfielder slapped a bases-loaded double down the right-field line in the fifth inning, giving the Mets some insurance runs in a 6-0 victory. Taylor got a rare start in right field against right-hander Andre Pallante with Jesse Winker getting a breather and Jeff McNeil needed at second base, but he's mostly fallen into a short-side platoon role since Winker was acquired. Taylor's been productive of late when called on though, batting .306 (11-for-36) over his last 12 games with three doubles, a homer, a steal, five RBI and seven runs.

  • Mets' Tyrone Taylor: Returning to bench Sunday

    Taylor is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

    Taylor had started in each of the Mets' last three games, but one of those starts came against a lefty, and another came while Harrison Bader was getting some rest coming off an ankle injury. With the Mets outfield at full strength, Taylor looks to be fourth in line for playing time behind Brandon Nimmo, Jesse Winker and Bader.

  • Mets' Tyrone Taylor: Headed for fourth-outfielder role

    Taylor is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Twins, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

    Taylor had started in five of the Mets' previous six games, but he'll likely fade back into a short-side platoon role in the outfield moving forward. In addition to getting center fielder Harrison Bader (ankle) back in the lineup following a five-game absence, the Mets will have the newly acquired Jesse Winker pick up his first start with the team in right field. Brandon Nimmo, Bader and Winker will likely form the Mets' preferred outfield trio against right-handed pitching.

  • Mets' Tyrone Taylor: Goes deep in three-hit game

    Taylor went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, an additional RBI and three total runs scored in Wednesday's 12-3 win over the Yankees.

    Taylor provided a surprise spark from the bottom of the lineup, going yard in the third inning and adding an RBI single in the sixth. The outfielder has hit modestly in July, going 11-for-45 (.244) with six extra-base hits over 15 contests this month. For the season, he's at a .233/.274/.401 slash line with six homers, 25 RBI, 30 runs scored, six stolen bases, 10 doubles and three triples across 216 plate appearances. Taylor may see a short-term uptick in playing time while Harrison Bader recovers from a rolled ankle he sustained Tuesday.

  • Mets' Tyrone Taylor: Sitting in second straight game

    Taylor is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Pirates, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

    Though he appeared to have a firm grasp on an everyday role in right field following Starling Marte's placement on the injured list June 25, Taylor will now sit for the second day in a row after he had started in nine of the preceding 11 contests. Jeff McNeil will get the nod in right field Monday in place of Taylor, who is slashing just .162/.225/.459 since Marte landed on the shelf.

  • Mets' Tyrone Taylor: Taking seat Sunday

    Taylor is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates.

    Taylor has been operating as the Mets' primary right fielder since Starling Marte (knee) landed on the injured list June 25, but he'll exit the starting nine Sunday to clear a spot for DJ Stewart. Thus far during Marte's absence, Taylor is hitting just .162 over 10 games, but five of his six hits during that stretch have gone for extra bases (three home runs, two doubles).

  • Mets' Tyrone Taylor: Heading to bench Sunday

    Taylor is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros.

    In the wake of Starling Marte's (knee) move to the injured list, Taylor had settled into a regular role in right field. Taylor started each of the last four games, going 3-for-14 with two home runs, two walks, five RBI and an additional two runs. He'll cede his spot in the outfield to DJ Stewart in the series finale.

  • Mets' Tyrone Taylor: Swats third homer

    Taylor went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run, an additional run and a walk against the Yankees on Wednesday in a 12-2 victory.

    Taylor's biggest contribution was a three-run blast in the sixth inning that essentially put the game on ice, giving the Mets a 10-2 lead. It was the outfielder's first homer since April 24 -- a span of 42 games and 94 at-bats. Taylor has made two straight starts in right field with Starling Marte (knee) on the injured list, so he may have a chance to turn around what has so far been a quiet first season as a Met.

  • Mets' Tyrone Taylor: Starting against right-hander again

    Taylor will start in right field and bat sixth in Wednesday's game against the Yankees, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

    The right-handed-hitting Taylor has started in both of the Mets' first two games in right field since Starling Marte (knee) landed on the 10-day injured list, even as the opposition has sent a righty to the bump both times. DJ Stewart will also be in the right-field mix while Marte is shelved, but Taylor looks to be the preferred option for now.

  • Mets' Tyrone Taylor: Gets start against righty

    Taylor went 1-for-4 with an RBI in Tuesday's win over the Yankees.

    With Starling Marte (knee) landing on the injured list, Taylor and DJ Stewart are expected to split reps in right field. Instead of using a strict platoon, however, Mets manager Carlos Mendoza elected to deploy the right-handed Taylor against Gerrit Cole on Tuesday, perhaps prioritizing Taylor's superior defense. The 30-year-old is making a case for a bigger role with his bat as well, batting .273 (9-for-33) in June with three doubles, a triple, an RBI and five runs.

  • Mets' Tyrone Taylor: Nabs fourth steal

    Taylor went 0-for-5 with a run scored and a stolen base in Thursday's extra-innings win over the Phillies.

    Getting the start in center field and hitting leadoff, Taylor didn't have much success at the plate but took advantage in the eighth inning when he reached on a Bryson Stott error, swiping second base and coming around to score on a Harrison Bader single. Taylor has seen sporadic playing time of late as the Mets' fourth outfielder, and through 91 plate appearances on the season he's slashing .256/.278/.372 with two homers, four steals, 10 runs and 13 RBI.

  • Mets' Tyrone Taylor: Back in bench role

    Taylor is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.

    Taylor is back on the bench for the third time in four games after he recently wrapped up a stretch of five consecutive starts in the Mets outfield. All of Brandon Nimmo, Starling Marte and Harrison Bader are healthy and available, so Taylor will remain limited to a fourth-outfielder role for the foreseeable future.

  • Mets' Tyrone Taylor: Garners third straight start

    Taylor will start in right field and bat sixth in Monday's game against the Cubs, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

    Taylor will draw a third consecutive start Monday, but he'll be relegated to a fourth- or fifth-outfielder role once Starling Marte (personal) returns from the bereavement list, perhaps as soon as Tuesday. The 30-year-old Taylor has done well with his part-time role in the Mets outfield so far this season, as he enters play Monday with a .294 average, two home runs and two stolen bases over 63 plate appearances.

  • Mets' Tyrone Taylor: Homer, three RBI in win

    Taylor went 2-for-5 with a home run, a double, three RBI and two runs scored in Wednesday's win over the Giants.

    Taylor jumped on a hanging knuckle-curve from Sean Hjelle in the top of the fourth and sent it into the stands in center field to extend the Mets' lead to three runs. He then added a two-out, two-run double in the fifth, giving the outfielder his third multi-hit performance of the season. Taylor has proven to be a reliable contributor on offense for New York when his number's been called, batting .349 in April with two homers, 12 RBI and five runs scored.

  • Mets' Tyrone Taylor: Big day in Wednesday's start

    Taylor went 3-for-4 with a run scored, two RBI and a stolen base in Wednesday's 9-1 win over the Pirates.

    Getting the start in right field and batting seventh, Taylor reeled off his second multi-hit performance of the season while swiping his second base. The 30-year-old has been outstanding so far as the Mets' fourth outfielder, batting .341 (14-for-41) through 15 appearances with a homer, three runs and 10 RBI, and manager Carlos Mendoza hasn't hesitated to give Taylor consistent playing time in the early part of the season.

  • Mets' Tyrone Taylor: Sitting in third straight

    Taylor is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against Atlanta.

    Taylor recently completed a stretch of five consecutive starts, but his boost in playing time was a byproduct of the Mets facing a left-handed pitcher during that stretch in addition to Brandon Nimmo being limited by a hamstring injury. With Nimmo having since returned to his usual spot in left field and the Mets set to face a third consecutive right-handed starting pitcher Thursday, Taylor has now found himself on the bench for each of those contests.

  • Mets' Tyrone Taylor: Gets fifth consecutive start

    Taylor will start in right field and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Reds, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

    Taylor will draw his fifth straight start Sunday, but he still doesn't look as though he'll be in store for a regular role with the Mets. Before Sunday, each of his prior three starts came while Brandon Nimmo was limited to designated-hitter duties or held out of the lineup as he managed a hamstring issue, but Nimmo is back in left field for the series finale in Cincinnati. The righty-hitting Taylor will stick in the lineup versus southpaw Andrew Abbott on Sunday while Starling Marte gets a day out of the field and occupies the DH spot, but Taylor's opportunities against right-handed pitching are still likely to be limited now that Nimmo is healthy again.
